I wandered so aimless life filled with sin
I wouldn't let my dear Saviour in
Then Jesus came like a stranger in the night
Praise the Lord!  I saw the light.

(Chorus)
I saw the light, I saw the light
No more darkness no more night
Now I'm so happy no sorrow in sight
Praise the Lord!  I saw the light.

Just like a blind man, I wandered along
Worries and fears I claimed for my own
Then like the blind man that God gave back his sight
Praise the Lord!  I saw the light.

I was a fool to wander and astray
Straight is the gate and narrow the way
Now I have traded the wrong for the right
Praise the Lord!  I saw the light.
